Eye on Integration (CAD/CAM Systems)

The use of a browser, for instance, does away with installation and administration overhead for a new user accessing a system. For the first time it is practical and cost-efficient enough to provide detailed information to all participants in the process, even if they only occasionally need it.

Djonev, too, recognizes the essential role the Web will play in future CAD/CAM development. He maintains integrating CAD functionality into the e-business process is a definite need, and envisions the future self-order Web site, wherein the customer chooses the exact packaging desired and receives estimates for costing, production capability, and timing.
